The sequence listing contained in this document in ASCII format forms part of the Description and is fully incorporated herein by reference. BACKGROUND FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a composition comprising (i) exosporia-producing recombinant Bacillus cells that express a fusion protein comprising: (x) at least one plant growth-stimulating protein or peptide and (y) a sequence targeting agent that localizes the fusion protein in the exosporium of Bacillus cells and ii) at least one insecticide selected from the particular insecticides disclosed herein that has the ability to improve plant growth and / or health and / or activity against insects, mites, nematodes and / or plant pathogens in a synergistically effective amount. Still further, the present invention relates to the use of this composition, as well as a method for improving plant growth, promoting plant health and / or reducing overall damage to plants and plant parts. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In crop protection there is a continuous need for applications that improve the health and / or growth of plants. Healthier plants generally result in higher yields and / or better quality of plants or their products. Fertilizers, based on inorganic and organic substances, are used throughout the world to promote plant health. A fertilizer can comprise a single substance or a composition, and is used to provide nutrients to plants. An important discovery in fertilizer application was the development of nitrogen-based fertilizers by Justus von Liebig around the year 1840. However, fertilizers can lead to soil acidification and a destabilization of the nutrient balance in the soil, including a reduction of minerals and enrichment in salts and heavy metals. In addition, the excessive use of fertilizers can lead to an alteration of the soil fauna, as well as to the contamination of surface water and groundwater. Furthermore, an unhealthy enrichment in substances such as nitrate can occur in plants and fruits. In addition, insecticides and fungicides are used throughout the world to control pests. Synthetic insecticides or fungicides are often non-specific and may therefore act on organisms other than the target organisms, including other naturally occurring beneficial organisms. Due to their chemical nature, they can also be toxic and non-biodegradable. Consumers around the world have become increasingly aware of the potential health and environmental problems associated with chemical residues, particularly in food products. This has resulted in increasing pressure from consumers to reduce the use or at least the amount of chemical (ie synthetic) pesticides. Therefore, there remains a need to manage the requirements of the food chain while allowing effective pest control. An additional problem that arises with the use of synthetic insecticides or fungicides is that the repeated and exclusive application of one insecticide or fungicide often leads to the selection of resistant animal pests or microorganisms. Typically, such strains also display cross-resistance against other active ingredients that have the same mode of action. Effective pathogen control will then no longer be possible with such active compounds. However, the development of active ingredients with novel mechanisms of action is difficult and expensive. The use of biological control agents (BCA), which act as plant health enhancers and / or plant protection agents, is an alternative to synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. In some cases, the effectiveness of BCAs is not at the same level as that of conventional insecticides and fungicides, especially in the case of severe infection pressure. Consequently, under some circumstances, biological control agents, their mutants, and the metabolites produced by them, particularly at low application rates, are not entirely satisfactory. Consequently, there is a constant need to develop new alternative plant health improvement compositions, including alternative plant protection and / or biological control agents used in conjunction with synthetic fungicides and insecticides in order to attempt to meet the previously mentioned requirements. QfrRLnn / Lznz / E / Yii THE INVENTION In view of this, it was a particular object of the present invention to provide compositions with a greater capacity to improve plant growth and / or to improve plant health or that present an improved activity against insects, mites, nematodes and / or phytopathogens. .

Bacillus is a genus of rod-shaped bacteria. The Bacillus cereus family of bacteria includes the species Bacillus anthracis, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus thuringiensis, Bacillus mycoides, Bacillus pseudomycoides, Bacillus samanii, Bacillus gaemokensis, Bacillus toyoiensis, and Bacillus weihenpasohensis. Under environmental stress conditions, the Bacillus cereus family of bacteria undergoes sporulation and forms oval endospores that can remain dormant for long periods of time. The outermost layer of endospores is known as the exosporium and comprises a basal layer surrounded by outer fluff of hair-like projections. The filaments above the hair-like fluff are made up predominantly of the collagen-like glycoprotein BclA, while the basal layer is made up of numerous different proteins. Another collagen-related protein, BclB, is also present in the exosporium and is exposed on the endospores of members of the Bacillus cereus family. BclA, the major constituent of surface fluff, has been shown to be attached to the exosporium by its amino terminus (N-terminus) located in the basal layer and its carboxyl terminus (C-terminus) extending out from the spore. It was previously discovered that certain sequences from the N-terminal regions of BclA and BclB could be used to direct a peptide or protein into the exosporium of a Bacillus cereus endospore (see US Patent Application Publications ULJ N°: 2010 / 0233124 and 2011 / 0281316, and Thompson et al., “Targeting of the BclA and BclB Proteins to the Bacillus anthracis Spore Surface,” Molecular Microbiology, 70(2):421-34 (2008), whose complete contents are incorporated herein by reference.Bacillus anthracis protein BetA / BAS3290 was also found to localize to the exosporium. In particular, amino acids 20-35 of BclA from the Bacillus anthracis strain Sterne have been found to be sufficient for exosporium targeting. Shown in Figure 1 is an alignment of amino acid sequences 1-41 of BclA (SEQ ID NO: 1) with the corresponding N-terminal regions of several other Bacillus cereus family exosporium proteins and Bacillus cereus family proteins. from Bacillus cereus that have related sequences. As can be seen in Figure 1, there is a region of high homology among all the proteins in the region corresponding to amino acids 20-41 of BclA. However, in these sequences, the amino acids corresponding to amino acids 36-41 of BclA contain a secondary structure and are not required for the localization of a fusion protein in the exosporium. The conserved region of the BclA targeting sequence (amino acids 20-35 of SEQ ID NO: 1) is shown in bold in Figure 1 and corresponds to the minimal targeting sequence required for localization in the exosporium. There is a more highly conserved region spanning amino acids 25-35 of BclA within the QfrRLnn / Lznz / E / Yii targeting sequence which is underlined in the sequences of Figures 1, and is the recognition sequence for ExsFA / BxpB / ExsFB and their homologues, which targets and assembles the described proteins on the exosporium surface. The amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NOs: 3, 5 and 7 in Figure 1 are amino acids 1-33 of Bacillus anthracis strain BetA / BAS3290, a methionine followed by amino acids 2-43 of strain BAS4623 Bacillus anthracis sterne and amino acids 1-34 of BclB from Bacillus anthracis strain sterne, respectively. (In the case of BAS4623, replacement of the valine present at position 1 of the native protein with a methionine was found to result in better expression.) As can be seen in Figure 1, each of these sequences contains a conserved region corresponding to amino acids 20-35 of BclA (SEQ ID NO: 1; indicated in bold), and a more highly conserved region corresponding to amino acids 20-35 of BclA (underlined). There are additional proteins from members of the Bacillus cereus family that also contain the conserved targeting region. In particular, in Figures 1, SEQ ID NO: 9 comprises amino acids 1-30 of BAS1882 from the Bacillus anthracis strain Sterne, SEQ ID NO: 11 comprises amino acids 1-39 of gene product 2280 from the Bacillus weihenpasohensis KBAB4, SEQ ID NO: 13 comprises amino acids 1-39 of Bacillus weihenpasohensis KBAB4 gene product 3572, SEQ ID NO: 15 comprises amino acids 1-49 of the VD200 exosporium leader peptide from Bacillus cereus, SEQ ID NO: 17 comprises amino acids 1-33 of Bacillus cereus VD166 exosporium guide peptide, SEQ ID NO: 19 comprises amino acids 1-39 of Bacillus cereus VD200 hypothetical protein IKG_04663 , SEQ ID NO: 21 comprises amino acids 1-39 of the YVTN β-helix protein of Bacillus weihenpasohensis KBAB4, SEQ ID NO: 23 comprises amino acids 1-30 of the hypothetical KBAB4 protein bcerkbab4_2363 from Bacillus weihenpasohensis, SEQ ID NO: 25 comprises amino acids 1-30 of the hypothetical protein bcerkbab4_2131 from Bacillus weihenpasohensis KBAB4, SEQ ID NO: 27 comprises amino acids 1-36 of the collagen triple helix repeat from Bacillus weihenpasohensis KBAB4, SEQ ID NO: 29 comprises amino acids 1-39 of the hypothetical protein bmyco0001_21660 from Bacillus mycoides 2048, SEQ ID NO: 31 comprises amino acids 1-30 of the hypothetical protein bmyc0001_22540 from Bacillus mycoides 2048, SEQ ID NO: 33 comprises amino acids 1-21 of the hypothetical protein bmyc0001_21510 from Bacillus mycoides 2048, SEQ ID NO: 35 comprises amino acids 1-22 of the triple repeat Bacillus thuringiensis 35646 collagen protein helix, SEQ ID NO: 43 comprises amino acids 1-35 of the hypothetical protein WP 69652 from Bacillus cereus, SEQ ID NO: 45 comprises amino acids 1-41 of the exosporium guideline WP016117717 from Bacillus cereus, SEQ ID NO: 47 comprises amino acids 1-49 of the QfrRLnn / Lznz / E / Yii peptide from Bacillus cereus exosporium WP002105192, SEQ ID NO: 49 comprises amino acids 1-38 of the hypothetical Bacillus cereus protein WP87353, SEQ ID NO: 51 comprises amino acids 1-39 of the Bacillus cereus exosporium peptide 02112369, SEQ ID NO: 53 comprises amino acids 1-39 of the Bacillus cereus exosporium protein WP016099770, SEQ ID NO: 55 comprises amino acids 1-36 of the hypothetical protein YP006612525 from Bacillus thuringiensis, SEQ ID NO: 57 comprises amino acids 1-136 of the hypothetical protein TIGR03720 from Bacillus mycoides. As shown in Figure 1, each of the N-terminal regions of these proteins contains a region that is conserved with amino acids 20-35 of BclA (SEQ ID NO: 1), and a more highly conserved region corresponding to amino acids 25-35 of BclA. Any portion of BclA that includes amino acids 20-35 can be used as the targeting sequence. In addition, full-length exosporium proteins or fragments of exosporium proteins can be used to target fusion proteins to the exosporium. Accordingly, full length BclA or a BclA fragment including amino acids 20-35 can be used for exosporium targeting. For example, full-length BclA (SEQ ID NO: 2) or a medium-sized fragment of BclA that is devoid of the carboxyl terminus, such as SEQ ID NO: 59 (BclA amino acids 1-196). , can be used to target fusion proteins to the exosporium. Medium size fragments, such as the fragment of SEQ ID NO: 59, have less secondary structure than full length BclA and have been found to be suitable for use as a targeting sequence. The targeting sequence may also comprise much shorter portions of BclA including amino acids 20-35, such as SEQ ID NO: 1 (BclA amino acids 1-41), SEQ ID NO: 1-35 amino acids : 1, amino acids 20-35 of SEQ ID NO: 1 or SEQ ID NO: 60 (a methionine residue attached to amino acids 20-35 of BclA). Even shorter fragments of BclA that only include some of amino acids 20-35 also have the ability to target fusion proteins to the exosporium. For example, the targeting sequence may comprise amino acids 22-31 of SEQ ID NO: 1, amino acids 22-33 of SEQ ID NO: 1, or amino acids 20-31 of SEQ ID NO: 1 . Alternatively, any portion of BetA / BAS3290, BAS4623, BclB, BAS1882, KBAB4 2280 gene product, KBAB4 2280 3572 gene product, B. cereus VD200 exosporium leader peptide, VD166 exosporium leader peptide from B. cereus, the hypothetical protein IKG_04663 from VD200 from B. cereus, the YVTN β-helix protein from KBAB4 from B. weihenstephensis, the hypothetical protein KBAB4 bcerkbab4_2363 from B. weihenstephensis, the hypothetical protein KBAB4 bcerkbab4_2131 from B. cereus. weihenstephensis, collagen containing a triple helix repeat of KBAB4 from B. weihenstephensis, the QfrRLnn / Lznz / E / Yii B. mycoides 2048 hypothetical bmyco0001_21660 protein, B. mycoides 2048 hypothetical bmyc0001_22540 protein, B. mycoides 2048 hypothetical bmyc0001_21510 protein, 35646 triple helix repeat collagen protein from B. thuringiensis, B. cereus hypothetical protein WP 69652, B. cereus exosporium WP016117717 guideline, B. cereus exosporium peptide WP002105192, B. cereus hypothetical protein WP87353, exosporium peptide 02112369 from B. cereus, B. cereus exosporium protein WP016099770, B. thuringiensis hypothetical protein YP006612525 or B. mycoides hypothetical protein TIGR03720, which includes amino acids corresponding to amino acids 20-35 of BclA, can serve as the sequence addressing.

Recombinant bacillus expressing the fusion proteins The fusion proteins described herein can be expressed by recombinant Bacillus exosporia-producing cells. The fusion protein can be any of the fusion proteins previously described. Recombinant Bacillus exosporia-producing cells can co-express two or more of any of the previously described fusion proteins.

For example, the recombinant Bacillus exosporia-producing cells may comprise Bacillus cereus, Bacillus thuringiensis, Bacillus pseudomycoides or Bacillus mycoides cells. In particular, the recombinant Bacillus exosporia-producing cells may be from Bacillus thuringiensis or Bacillus mycoides. To generate recombinant Bacillus exosporia-producing cells expressing a fusion protein, any member of the Bacillus cereus family can be conjugated, transduced or transformed with a vector encoding the fusion protein using standard methods known in the art (for example, by electroporation). Bacteria can then be selected to identify transformants by any method known in the art. For example, when the vector includes an antibiotic resistance gene, bacteria can be selected for antibiotic resistance. Alternatively, the DNA encoding the fusion protein can be integrated into the chromosomal DNA of a host of a B. cereus family member. The recombinant Bacillus exosporia-producing cells can then be exposed to conditions that will induce sporulation. qhr i nn / ι zoz / e / yl Conditions suitable for inducing sporulation are known in the art. For example, recombinant Bacillus exosporia-producing cells can be plated on agar plates and incubated at a temperature of approximately 30°C for several days (eg, 3 days). Suitably, inactivated strains, non-toxic strains or genetically engineered strains of any of the foregoing species may also be used. For example, Bacillus thuringiensis devoid of the Cry toxin can be used. Alternatively, or in addition, once the recombinant spores of the B. cereus family expressing the fusion protein have been generated, they can be inactivated to prevent further germination once in use. Any method for inactivating bacterial spores known in the art can be used. Suitable methods include, but are not limited to, heat treatment, gamma irradiation, X-ray irradiation, UV-A irradiation, UV-B irradiation, chemical treatment (for example, gluteraldehyde treatment, formaldehyde, hydrogen peroxide , acetic acid, bleach, or any combination thereof) or a combination thereof. Alternatively, spores derived from non-toxicogenic strains or from genetically or physically inactivated strains may be used. Recombinant Bacillus exosporia-producing cells having plant growth promoting effects and / or other beneficial attributes Many of the strains of members of the Bacillus cereus family have inherent beneficial attributes. For example, some strains have plant growth promoting effects. Any of the fusion proteins described herein can be expressed in such strains. For example, the recombinant Bacillus exosporia-producing cells may comprise a plant growth-promoting strain of bacteria. The plant growth-promoting strain of bacteria may comprise a strain of bacteria that produces an insecticidal toxin (for example, a Cry toxin), that produces a fungicidal compound (for example, a β-1,3-glucanase, a chitosinase, a liticase or a combination thereof), which produces a nematocidal compound (e.g., a Cry toxin), which produces a bactericidal compound, which is resistant to one or more antibiotics, which comprises one or more freely replicating plasmids, which is binds to plant roots, colonizes plant roots, forms biofilms, solubilizes nutrients, secretes organic acids, or any combination thereof. For example, when the recombinant Bacillus exosporia-producing cells comprise a plant growth-promoting strain of bacteria, said plant growth-promoting strain of bacteria may comprise Bacillus mycoides strain BT155 (NRRL No: B-50921), strain Bacillus mycoides EE118 (NRRL No: B-50918), strain EE141 QfrRLnn / Lznz / E / Yii of Bacillus mycoides (NRRL No.: B-50916), Bacillus mycoides strain BT46-3 (NRRL No.: B50922), strain EE128 of a member of the Bacillus cereus family (NRRL No: B-50917), Bacillus thuringiensis strain BT013A (NRRL No: B-50924) or strain EE349 of a member of the Bacillus cereus family (NRRL No: B-50928). Bacillus thuringiensis strain BT013A is also known as Bacillus thuringiensis 4Q7. Each of these strains was deposited with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Agricultural Research Service (ARS), with address at 1815 North University Street, Peoria, Illinois 61604, USA, on March 10, 2014, and is identified by the NRRL deposit number provided in parentheses. These plant growth promoting strains were isolated from the rhizospheres of several vigorous plants and identified by their 16S rRNA sequences and by biochemical assays. The strains were identified by at least the genus name using conventional biochemical and morphological indicators. Biochemical assays for confirmed Gram-positive strains, such as Bacillus, included growth on PEA medium and nutrient agar, microscopic examination, growth on 5% and 7.5% NaCI medium, growth at pH 5 and pH 9, growth at 42 °C and 50 °C, the ability to produce acid then fermentation with cellobiose, lactose, glycerol, glucose, sucrose, d-mannitol and starch; production of fluorescent pigments; gelatin hydrolysis; nitrate reduction; catalase production, starch hydrolysis; oxidase reaction, urease production and motility. For example, the recombinant Bacillus exosporia-producing cells comprising a strain of plant growth-promoting bacteria may comprise Bacillus mycoides BT155, Bacillus mycoides EE141 or Bacillus thuringiensis BT013A. Recombinant Bacillus exosporia-producing cells can express any of the fusion proteins described herein, for example, a fusion protein comprising the targeting sequence of SEQ ID NO: 60 and a non-hormonal peptide ( for example, a Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI)), an enzyme involved in the production or activation of a plant growth-stimulating compound (for example, a chitosinase), a plant-binding protein or peptide (for example, , Rate); a protein or peptide that protects a plant against a pathogen (eg, TasA); or an enzyme that degrades or modifies a bacterial, fungal, or plant nutrient source (eg, a phosphatase, such as PhoA or phytase, or an endoglucanase). promoters In any of the recombinant members of the Bacillus cereus family described herein, the fusion protein can be expressed under the control of a promoter that is native to the targeting sequence, exosporium protein, or protein fragment. fusion protein exosporium protein. For example, when the fusion protein comprises a targeting sequence derived from Sterne's BclA strain of B. QfrRLnn / Lznz / E / Yii anthracis (eg, amino acids 20-35 of SEQ ID NO: 1, amino acids 1-35 of SEQ ID NO: 1, SEQ ID NO: 1, or SEQ ID No: 60) or when the fusion protein comprises the full-length BclA (SEQ ID No: 2) or a fragment of the full-length BclA (for example, SEQ ID No: 59), the protein of fusion can be expressed under the control of a promoter that is normally associated with the BclA gene in the B. anthracis Sterne genome (eg, the promoter of SEQ ID NO: 85). Alternatively, the fusion protein can be expressed under the control of a high expression sporulation promoter. In some cases, the promoter that is native to the targeting sequence, exosporium protein, or exosporium protein fragment will be a highly expressed sporulation promoter. In other cases, the promoter that is native to the targeting sequence, exosporium protein, or exosporium protein fragment will not be a high expression sporulation promoter. In these latter cases, it may be advantageous to replace the native promoter with a highly expressing sporulation promoter. Expression of the fusion protein under the control of a high expression sporulation promoter provides increased expression of the fusion protein on the exosporium of the Bacillus cereus family member. Said high expression sporulation promoter may comprise one or more sequences of a sigma-K sporulation-specific polymerase promoter. High expression sporulating promoters suitable for use in expressing the fusion proteins in a member of the Bacillus cereus family include those listed in Table 2 below: qhr ι ηη / ι 7n7 / E / YL

For the purposes of the present invention, the composition of the invention is applied alone or in a formulation suitable for seeds. The seeds are preferably treated under a condition in which their stability is such that no damage occurs in the course of the treatment. Generally speaking, seeds can be treated at any point in time between harvest and sowing. Typically, seeds are used that have been separated from the plant and from which the kernels, husks, stems, hulls, hairs, or pulp have been removed. Thus, for example, seeds that have been harvested, cleaned and dried to a moisture content of less than 15% by weight can be used. As an alternative, it is also possible to use seeds that after drying have been treated, for example, with water and then dried again. When treating seeds it is necessary, in general terms, to ensure that the amount of the composition of the invention, and / or other additives, that is applied to the seeds is selected in such a way that the germination of the seeds is not adversely affected. seeds, and / or that the plants emerging from the seeds are not damaged.

Thus, for example, the use or use of the composition of the invention in the treatment according to the invention allows reduced application doses and / or a broadening of the spectrum of activity and / or an increase in activity with better growth. of the plant, greater tolerance to high or low temperatures, greater tolerance to drought or water or salt content of the soil, better flowering performance, easier harvest, accelerated maturation, higher harvest yields, larger fruits, greater height of the plants, greener color of the leaves, earlier flowering, higher quality and / or greater nutritional value of the harvested products, higher concentration of sugars in the fruits, greater storage stability and / or greater processability of the harvested products, which exceed the really expected effects. At certain application rates, the composition of the invention in the treatment according to the invention can also have a strengthening effect on plants. The plant's defense system is mobilized against attacks by phytopathogenic fungi and / or unwanted microorganisms and / or viruses. Substances that strengthen plants (resistance inducers), in the present context, refer to those substances or combinations of substances that have the ability to stimulate the defense system of plants in such a way that, when subsequently inoculated with phytopathogenic fungi and / or unwanted microorganisms and / or viruses, the treated plants present a substantial degree of resistance to these phytopathogenic fungi and / or microorganisms and / or viruses. Therefore, with the use or employment of the composition according to the present invention in the treatment according to the invention, it is possible to protect the plants against attacks by the above-mentioned pathogens within a certain period of time after the treatment. The time period of the protection is generally between 1 and 10 days, preferably between 1 and 7 days, after treatment of the plants with the active compounds. Plants and plant cultivars that can also preferably be treated according to the invention are resistant against one or more types of biotic stress, i.e. said plants present a better defense against animal and microbial pests, such as QfrRLnn / Lznz / E / Yii against nematodes, insects, mites, phytopathogenic fungi, bacteria, viruses and / or viroids. Plants and plant cultivars that can also be treated according to the invention are those plants that are resistant to one or more types of abiotic stress, that is to say, that already present an improved state of plant health with respect to the stress tolerance. Abiotic stress conditions may include, for example, drought, exposure to cold temperatures, exposure to heat, osmotic stress, flooding, increased soil salinity, increased mineral exposure, ozone exposure, high light exposure, limited nutrient availability. with nitrogen, limited availability of nutrients with phosphorus, avoidance of shade. Preferably, treatment of these plants and cultivars with the composition of the present invention further increases the overall health status of the plant (see above). Plants and plant cultivars that can also be treated according to the invention are those plants characterized by having improved performance characteristics, ie they already have a better state of health with respect to this trait. Increased yield in such plants may be the result, for example, of improved plant physiology, growth and development, such as water use efficiency, water retention efficiency, improved nitrogen use, improved carbon assimilation, improved photosynthesis, higher germination efficiency and accelerated ripening. Yield can be further affected by improved plant architecture (under stressed and non-stressed conditions) including, but not limited to, early flowering, flowering control for hybrid seed production, seedling vigor , plant size, number and distance of intermodes, root growth, seed size, fruit size, pod size, number of pods or ears, number of seeds per pod or ear, seed mass, filler improved seed resistance, reduced seed dispersal, reduced pod dehiscence and resistance to lodging. Other performance traits include seed composition, such as carbohydrate content, protein content, oil content and composition, nutritional value, reduction of anti-nutritional compounds, improved processability, and increased storage stability. Preferably, treatment of these plants and cultivars with the composition of the present invention further increases the overall health status of the plant (see above). The plants that can be treated in accordance with the invention are hybrid plants that already express the trait of heterosis or hybrid vigor which generally results in increased yield, vigour, health and resistance to biotic and abiotic stress factors. Such plants are typically obtained by crossing a sterile male inbred parent line (the female parent) with another fertile male inbred parent line (the male parent). Typically, hybrid seeds are harvested from the sterile male plants and marketed to growers. Male-sterile plants can sometimes be produced (for example, in the case of maize) by emasculation, that is, the mechanical removal of the male reproductive organs (or male flowers), but more typically, male sterility is the result of determinants. genes in the plant genome. In such a case, and especially when seed is the desired product to be harvested from the hybrid plants, it is typically useful to ensure a complete restoration of male fertility in the hybrid plants. This can be achieved by ensuring that the male parents contain the appropriate fertility restoration genes that are capable of restoring male fertility in hybrid plants that contain the genetic determinants responsible for male sterility. The genetic determinants of male sterility can localize in the cytoplasm. Examples of cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) have been described, for example, in Brassica species. However, the genetic determinants of male sterility can also be located in the nuclear genome. Male sterile plants can also be obtained by methods of plant biotechnology, such as genetic engineering. A particularly useful means of obtaining male sterile plants is described in WO 89 / 10396, where, for example, a ribonuclease such as barnase is selectively expressed in tapetal cells in the stamens. Fertility can then be restored by expression in the tapetal cells of a ribonuclease inhibitor, such as barstar. Plants or plant cultivars (obtained by methods of plant biotechnology, such as genetic engineering) that can be treated according to the invention are herbicide-tolerant plants, ie plants that have been rendered tolerant to one or more given herbicides. Said plants can be obtained by genetic transformation or by selection of plants containing a mutation that imparts said tolerance to herbicides. EXAMPLES Example 1: Formula for the efficacy of the combination of multiple active ingredients There is a synergistic effect of the active ingredients when the activity of the combinations of active ingredients exceeds the total of the activities of the active ingredients when applied individually. The expected activity for a given combination of two active ingredients can be calculated as follows (see, Colby, S.R., Calculating Synergistic and Antagonistic Responses of Herbicide Combinations”, Weeds 1967, 15, 20-22): Yeah: X is the efficacy when active ingredient A is applied at an application rate of m ppm (or g / ha), Yes the efficacy when active ingredient B is applied at an application rate of n ppm (or g / ha), QfrRLnn / Lznz / E / Yii E is the efficacy when active ingredients A and B are applied at application rates of m and n ppm (or g / ha), respectively, and then If the actual activity exceeds the calculated value, then the activity of the combination is superadditive, ie there is a synergistic effect. In this case, the actual observed efficacy must be greater than the expected efficacy (E) value calculated with the aforementioned formula. For example, the formula and analysis can be applied to evaluate plant growth promotion. Said assay is evaluated for several days after the applications to the plants. 100% means that the weight of the plants corresponds to that of the untreated control plant. In this case the efficacy refers to the additional % weight of the plants compared to that of the untreated control. For example, a treatment that resulted in a plant weight that was 120% compared to the untreated control plant would have an efficacy of 20%. If the plant growth promotion effect for the combination (i.e., the efficacy observed for % shoot weights of plants treated with the combination) exceeds the calculated value, then the activity of the combination is superadditive, i.e. , there is a synergistic effect. The formula and analysis can also be used to assess synergy in disease control trials. The degree of efficacy, expressed as a %, is indicated. 0% means efficacy corresponding to the control while 100% efficacy means no disease is observed. If the actual insecticidal or fungicidal activity exceeds the calculated value, then the activity of the combination is superadditive, ie there is a synergistic effect. In this case, the actual observed efficacy must be greater than the expected efficacy (E) value calculated with the aforementioned formula. An additional way of demonstrating a synergistic effect is the Tammes method (see, "Isoboles, A Graphic Representation of Synergism in Pesticides," in Neth. J. Plant Path., 1964, 70, 73-80). Example 2: Plant growth promotion with flupyradifurone and recombinant Bacillus thuringiensis cells Experiments were conducted to test the efficacy of a combination of flupyradifurone and a fermentation product of recombinant Bacillus thuringiensis cells expressing a phospholipase C ("BEPC"). Corn seeds were grown in a sterile mixture of synthetic medium and sand in small 3-inch square pots on supports in a plant growth room at 25-28°C and 50% humidity for approximately 14 days. Two seeds were sown in each pot. At the time of sowing, the medium was soaked QfrRLnn / Lznz / E / Yii growth in each pot with the treatments described below. After 14 days, the whole plant biomass of the plants was measured. In the following table, UTO refers to an untreated control. "Calculated" refers to the expected effect that was calculated using the Colby equation described previously and "Efficacy" refers to the actual observed effect. The SIVANTO® product, containing flupyradifurone as active ingredient (17.09% flupyradifurone), was diluted in 50 ml of water and the diluted solution was used to soak the growth medium. The application rate shown below refers to the amount of the active ingredient (ie, flupyradifurone) applied to the growth medium. A recombinant member of the Bacillus cereus family (Bacillus thuringiensis BT013A) expressing a phospholipase C on its exosporium (BEPC) was generated in the following manner. To generate the plasmids for the expression of the fusion proteins in the members of the Bacillus cereus family, PCR fragments encoding the BclA promoter (SEQ ID NO: 85), a methionine start codon, and the amino acids 20-35 of BclA (SEQ ID NO: 1) followed by a six-alanine linker sequence fused in-frame with the Bacillus thuringiensis BT013A phospholipase (SEQ ID NO: 108). These PCR fragments were digested with Xhol and then ligated into the Sali site of the pSUPER plasmid to generate the pSUPER-BclA 20-35-phospholipase plasmids. Plasmid pSUPER was generated by fusing plasmid pUC57 (containing an ampicillin resistance cassette) with Bacillus plasmid pBC16-1 (containing tetracycline resistance). This 5.5 kbp plasmid can replicate in both E. coli and Bacillus spp. The pSUPER-BclA 20-35-Phospholipase plasmids were transformed and propagated in E. coli methylase negative dam strains and finally transformed into Bacillus thuringiensis BT013A. To obtain BEPC complete broth cultures, 15 mL conical flasks containing Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) medium were inoculated with BEPC and cultured for 7-8 hours at approximately 30°C with a shaker setting of 300 rpm. The following day, 250 μΙ aliquots from each flask were inoculated into 250 ml flasks containing 50 ml yeast extract-based medium and cultured at approximately 30°C. After approximately 2 days of incubation, when sporulation was at least 95% complete, the culture broth was harvested and colony-forming units calculated. The fermentation broth was diluted to 5% in 50 ml of water and the following colony-forming units were applied to each pot. QfrRLnn / Lznz / E / Yii Table 3 Treatment Application rate Biomass of whole plants (g) % found % effective % calculated UTC 3.39 100 flupyradifurone 1.36 mg / pot 3.50 103 3 BEPC 5% 7 x 108 CFU / pot 3.83 113 13 flupyradifurone + BEPC 5% 1.36 mg / pot + 7 x 108 CFU / pot 4.15 122 22 15.61 QfrRLnn / Lznz / E / Yii The results indicate a superadditive performance effect of plants when flupyradifurone and BEPC are combined. Example 3: Promotion of plant growth with Clothianidino and recombinant cells of Bacillus thuringiensis Maize seeds will be grown in clayey sand in a greenhouse at 20 °C and 70% humidity for approximately 11 days. After approximately 11 days from the time of treatment the seedlings will be cut above the ground and the fresh weight will be determined. Recombinant Bacillus thuringiensis cells expressing an endoglucanase encoded by SEQ ID No.: 107 or a phospholipase C encoded by SEQ ID No.: 108 and which were prepared as previously described at approximately 50 pg / grain will be applied. Clothianidino will also be applied at approximately 250 pg / kernel. Maize plants treated with recombinant Bacillus thuringiensis in combination with Clothianidino are expected to have % shoot weights that exceed the calculated value based on % shoot weights of maize plants treated with the two active ingredients alone. , that is, a synergistic effect will be observed.
